Tesla Proposes New EV Plants Be Set Up In India

Tesla slashes Model 3, Model Y prices in China for second time in 3 months

Tesla Inc. informed government officials on Wednesday, May 17, that it plans to establish a plant in India to produce electric vehicles for domestic and international markets.

Final Decision Is Yet To Be Made

Tesla is currently examining one or two nations as prospective locations for a new production facility. India is being explored as a potential location, although nothing has been confirmed yet. The company’s interest in using India as a manufacturing center strengthens the country’s position as a viable location for the production of automobiles and automotive components.

Tesla representatives expressed their worries about the taxes and tariffs levied in India throughout the sessions. These worries are in line with the company’s objective to maintain a good business climate and the efficient running of its business. To create a supportive manufacturing ecosystem, voicing these issues was essential.

India’s Stance On Taxes To Be Levied

According to reports, Indian officials told Tesla that any tax breaks must be equally given to the whole sector. This approach suggests that the Indian government wants to offer everybody in the industry an equal playing field, encouraging fair competition and steady sector growth.

Despite the ongoing discussions, Tesla has yet to make a final decision about its manufacturing plans in India. The business is analyzing the Indian market in-depth to ascertain whether it would be viable to set up a local production plant.

As per CNBCTV18 reports, it’s possible that Tesla may choose a hybrid strategy in India. This strategy can entail producing specific models at home while importing high-end models to target the specialized luxury market.
